As a dedicated member of the Forgemaster community, I've watched this vibrant and diverse gaming population grow and thrive, largely due to its fair and balanced environment that welcomes both free-to-play (F2P) and pay-to-win (P2W) players. However, the recent announcement by Lessmore GMBH to reset tech vials every new tech season threatens to topple this balance and could dismantle the carefully nurtured planning strategies of countless F2P clans.

The introduction of this mechanics reset each season disproportionately affects players who rely on strategic planning to progress in the game. F2P players, who invest time and effort instead of money, will no longer be able to save and meticulously plan their progression over seasons. This proposed change effectively forces them to start from scratch, eliminating long-term strategies and pushing them towards a model where monetary investment becomes necessary to succeed.

Moreover, even P2W clans will be adversely affected, having to invest more heavily every season to maintain their competitive edge. This change risks alienating a large portion of Forgemaster's user base, potentially leading to a significant loss in active players as clans either disband or members quit out of frustration.

A strong community belief is that gameplay should revolve around skills, strategy, and dedication rather than recurrent financial investment. By maintaining the current system, where tech vial accumulation is preserved throughout seasons, we ensure a level playing field that keeps our community engaged and vibrant.

I urge Lessmore GMBH to reconsider this proposed change. The ongoing enjoyment and growth of the Forgemaster community depend on maintaining a balanced gameplay environment where every player, regardless of their financial capabilities, can succeed through skill and dedication. Let's preserve the essence of what makes Forgemaster such a beloved game.
